Let us begin another journey into the serious world of online survivor. The dude known as Old Dude has retired as MC and creator of the annual Orange Mane Survivor extravaganza. As past winners of Survivor, JCMElway and myself have taken over and thus begins the next generation!

As such, this years theme will be Star Trek based. So yeah, set your phasers to dork and lets get this party started.

Rules will be posted on a per round basis. Votes are due by PM to myself or JCMElway by 2:00pm Mountain Time. We will tell you who to PM the vote to each specific round. There may be some rounds where the deadline will be different, we will let you know at the start of that round.

Welcome to deep space, a place so isolated it drives a man insane. A place where being alone is pure torture..... Kind of like when Captain Kirk had some issue with some fuzzy looking aliens or something like that.

But let's put your mental strength to the test will we..... and for that matter whatever alliances you MAY have formed waiting for your ship to leave dry dock, or whatever the hell they call it for Star Trek vehicles of space.

Round 1 is a blackout round.

THAT'S RACIST..... except not really. It is simple really, the vote you cast this round will be recorded...... but the results will not be shared until after the end of the game. In this round not voting speaks volumes, at least to JCM and myself. But nobody else will know, until its too late. As with everything in life there are consequences for your actions..... or no action in this case........

Votes are due into me theAPAOps5 by 2pm (Mountain Time) tomorrow....... or Tuesday June 18, 2013 for you detailed oriented ones. Whenever I feel like tallying them up and telling you is when you will find out.

Man I love that gif image. Thank you Old Dude for the most righteous image share.

Speaking of Old Dude.... he used to say that the audience loves a good show. As such there have been instances in the past where some of the audience may get a little curious. There is no requirement of you to share anything but let's just say, they like it when people do..... even if it is good old fashioned Travishamockery.
